These are spectacular! Crunchy, chewy and wafer thin with the delicious taste of Nutella. What else could you ask for? My family, friends & co-workers went bonkers over these delicious devils. Made these for a cookie exchange & they were such a huge hit, they asked me to make them for our Christmas cookie exchange, but with the hazelnuts this time. Omitted them the first go round, since my hubby doesn't like nuts in his cookies. This is definitely a keeper and a constant cookie staple in our house from now on.

I made these cookies yesterday for my boyfriend and they were amazing!! I love how they're crunchy and chewy at the same time. My only "but" is that they spread way too much while in the oven, so they ended up like nutella crackers, lol. Maybe a bit more flour would do the trick. I'll definitely make these again...and again... and again!

Wow, were these yummy!! I was actually using up a large jar of nutella so I only had maybe 20 oz. or so to mix into the dough. Turns out it didn't matter -- the cookies still turned out great. I had started out with very soft butter so the cookies spread a little more than I expected but they still came out wonderfully chewy and chock full of nutella flavor. I highly recomment toasting the hazelnuts at 300F for 10 minutes, then rolling them around in a clean kitchen towel to remove most of the skins. The toasted nuts really add a nice flavor to the cookie. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!
